Intro: (C/E) (F9) (C/E) (F9) (C/E) (F9) (Fmaj7/G) (G)
That (C/E) house on the (F9) hill is (C/E) long (F9) gone
Now she's (C) living in a (F) trailer with an (G) Astroturf lawn
Got (C/E) three little (F9) kids and (C/E) no one to (F9) help
Trying to be (C) Momma and (F) Daddy (G) all by herself
It's hard to (Am) hold down the fort when you're (Em7) holdin' down a job
She'd rob (F9) Peter to pay Paul but he's already been robbed
She gets the (Am) food on the table and the (Em7) clothes off the lines
She'd (F) break down and cry but she (Fmaj7/G) doesn't have (G7) time
She's got to (Csus2) be (C) strong, (Em7) life goes (C/E) on
(F) Though it's nothin' like (G) she had planned
She's gonna (Csus2) be o.(C)k. gonna (Em7) find a (C/E) way
(F) Living in (F/G) no man's (C/E) land (F9) (C/E) (F9) (C/E) (F9) (Fmaj7/G) (G)
Every now and then late at night
She thinks of how it would feel to hold someone tight
And there's a guy down at work he keeps callin' her up
But she ain't ready for none of that stuff
She's still sifting through the ashes of a love that's been and gone
Looking for a clue, trying to find out what went wrong
It ain't always easy, but she knows she's gotta try
Every time she looks into her babies' eyes
Repeat Chorus
